Student house party. 75% voted for OP to call police.
Really?
I think this thread is chilling proof at how far we've fallen in a society within such a small amount of time. Less than a year with constant media brainwashing, all of us essentially under house arrest, and look at us. Clearing out supermarkets and calling the police because "it's the right thing to do" and "they're putting society at risk".
Who else would you have turned in?
At what other point in history would you have colluded with the government to "do the right thing", without any thought for your fellow humans just being people?
They are students. They are broke, they have been confined to their box rooms almost a whole year. Have some heart for christs sake.
And by the way, I do believe in covid. I believe in staying home and wearing masks and doing the right thing. I would never grass though. Ever. And that goes for covid antics, benefit fraud, whatever. I believe people sometimes do what they need to do to survive physically or emotionally.
I think its terrifying what society has become in less than a year.
Who would have thought we would be living on a world where you would be standing in a little yellow circle traced out on a supermarket floor, and not an inch over if you please, else you'll be reported as a health threat!
Is this our world now? In which young lonely people are turned in and fined for spending time together?
I'm not advocating for student parties, I'm advocating for looking away when you see one.
AIBU?
To find these covid snitching threads terrifying
